ALASKA! Part 1

We arrived in Seattle on Friday night.  Parkwest put us up in a The Renaissance Hotel.  It was the first hotel the girls have stayed in since they were infants.  Parkwest had a fancy dinner and the girls got to dress up.  They did a great job, considering dinner wasn't served until 8 (their bed time). 
Saturday we couldn't get on the ship until noon, and we didn't have to be with Parkwest, so we got to be tourists in Seattle.  We had a great time walking around downtown.  Of course we hit Pike's Place Market and Starbucks!
 Another must  have, the mini fried donuts!  We got some of each kind, the girls were pretty impressed!
The view of our ship from downtown.  Bonus, it was SUNNY and in the 70s in Seattle!
 The first stop was the pool once we got on the ship.  Ellie and Dani were in heaven. 
 The ship could have stayed in port for the week and they would have been happy just to swim (and eat ice cream of course).
Days 3-7 will follow soon......
